The penalty was imposed on the present CPIO of SDM office (Civil Lines), GNCTD and also the former CPIO asking their offices to deduct the penalty from their salary and pension respectively. Said order of CIC came upon a complaint filed for non-compliance of CIC order dated 4.9.2012 wherein the PIO was directed to furnish a reply to the complainant. The complainant claimed that his father was joint bhoomidar with one R of around 20 bighas of land in Delhi which is worth around Rs 100 crore. He alleged that Revenue Authorities put forward the files alleging that his father surrendered the status of bhoomidar on June 03, 1977 in favour of R. The complainant approached CPIO of SDM office seeking certified copy of the &#8216;surrender&#8217; letter, which was not furnished. The complainant alleged that he require the \u2018surrender\u2019 document to examine the witness before the Revenue Court, where R is claiming to be an absolute owner. There was no response for his complaint and he was not even informed the name and address of first appellate authority as mandated by RTI Act. Then he filed second appeal wherein CIC directed disclosure of information within a week, which was also not implemented. The officials merely responded that the file was missing, and did not respect the orders of CIC and the First Appellate Authority. The complainant filed another complaint alleging that the CIC order given in 2012 was not implemented. In year 2014, show cause notice was issued to the concerned CPIO. It was contended by the CPIO that he instructed the subordinate staff to trace the missing file but nothing was done to reconstruct the file. The explanation of PIO was not satisfactory on the aspect of not lodging FIR or in regard to construction of an alternative file. After hearing the parties, the Commission observed that, \u201cPIOs are using the \u2018defence\u2019 of \u2018missing file\u2019 repeatedly to deny the information. Neither RTI Act nor the Public Records Act provided for this defence of \u2018missing of file\u2019. The core function of Revenue department is to secure and maintain the key records regarding land to ascertain the ownership and possession issues. If such important orders or records of land revenue are missing it will be difficult to ascertain and defend the right of ownership or possession of the land.\u201d CIC further observed that &#8220;If file was lost inadvertently or for any other reason, nothing could have prevented SDM from inquiring into immediately and taking quick decision to lodge FIR and reconstruct the file,&#8221; and imposed penalty upon the past and present PIOs of office of SDM Civil Lines GNCTD for adamant attitude refusing RTI application, not responding to complaint and not complying with first and second appeal orders.
